Experts reported about strong investors’ interest in industrial areas across Bulgaria, not only in the largest cities of Sofia and Plovdiv. However, lack of experts has been a serious problem for foreign investors. On the other companies should start offering better salaries if they wanted to retain staff but the cheaper costs in Bulgaria have been attractive to foreign businesses, experts say.

These are usually global players that are in the top five in the world in a given industry, it was reported.
